Happy New Year 2013 from Hong Kong

Happy New Year everyone! How did you spend your New Year's Eve? I spent mine with J and 6 other friends on a boat from where we counted down to 2013. I had an amazing evening and I took plenty of pics so that you get to see how we welcomed the new year in Hong Kong! The boat left the Tsim Sha Tsui pier at 7 PM and took us to Cheung Chau Island for dinner. Cheung Chau is a small and cozy island an hour away by ferry from the city center.

Around 10.30 PM, after having had dinner and walked around the island for a bit, we went back to the boat and sailed towards Victoria Harbour, where we watched the breathtaking countdown and fireworks on the city's skyline from first row!

The countdown begins!

15 seconds to go!

Happy New Year!

2013!

Happy New Year!!! I hope you had an amazing New Year's Eve. I wish you all the best for this 2013!
